... or maybe user error :-)

When I add a static custom header field, such as a "Reply To:" field in 
TechMail (2.3a4) inserts it with a blank line ahead of it.  This is of 
course not a header field at all and will not be properly delt with by a 
proper mail handeling program (i.e. it will be ingnored).  e.g. below.

Am I doing something wrong?  Is there a fix?  (You still got a week or 
two of IAP)

I have reason to believe that this problem existed in earlier versions.

thanks,
Mark
